Say what you like about the civilization of Ancient Greece, those column-loving MFs knew how to tell a good story. They came up with all these tales about the Gods and the wild ways they interacted with people and each other, and even though it may be difficult to find anybody who believes in them nowadays, we're still having conversations about them. Some may argue that the measure of a good story is how easily it can be memed, which is yet another plus side that comes from both Ancient Greek mythology and history. It can get confusing to keep up with all the different characters at times, but adding a little internet humor into the sure to help. In a way, we're as duty-bound to keep on doing this as Sisyphus is to keep on pushing that rock up that hill. Except this is more enjoyable, we have to say.
